Ed's Redbox II

"Hi Paul,

Great pic (I sent Ed). Here's a few more Redbox pics I found. The one boxed isn't mine, I keep getting outbid. This version is Action Man scale. Redbox stuff is tricky because it can be 8 inch scale or 12 inch scale. With 8 inch scale the only moving parts are the head and arms. Redbox was a prolific toy company with knock off type items back in 60s-70s Redbox there are many soldiers, sailors, Tommys and Spacemen. Redbox is still around producing childrens toys today no action figures though. The UK seems to have had better distribution of Redbox toys than in USA. No telling what else they produced. The 1960s Fairlylite (sp) Thunderbird 1/6th scale figures look very much like Redbox figures. I wonder if there is any connection? Have a great NEW YEAR!

Ed"

Cheers Ed. RedBox did some cool spy stuff too. I have a few bits. Sean commented on BLUE BOX in the last post. Did they do toy figures too? Pics anyone? Bluebox, Redbox, Spy stuff? Woodsy
